Fig. 1
Abdominal CT. A large hypointense mass displaces the bladder and the rectum, filling rectovaginal space. Close contact between the mass and acetabulum, with a beak-like extension towards the acetabular screws, is evident. Osteolysis of acetabulum is prominent.

Fig. 2
Coronal T2 weighted MRI. The mass is heterogeneous in nature, T2 hyperintense and compresses the left ureteric orifice causing ureteral dilation.
